1. These admission requests should be answered in accordance with the

Definitions and Instructions set forth in Plaintiffs' First Set of Interrogatories to

Defendants and the additional Definitions provided in Plaintiffs' First Set of Requests for

Admissions.

2. These requests for admissions are deemed to be continuing. If defendants,

defendants' attorneys or defendants' agents obtain any other information which would

add to, modify, or qualify your responses supplied herein, you are directed, pursuant to

Minn. R. Civ. P. 26.05, to give timely notice of such information and furnish the same to

Plaintiff without delay.

3. You are required to answer these Requests for Admission by either stating that

you Admit or Deny the statement. Defendants may not give lack of information or

knowledge as a reason for failure to admit or deny unless Defendants states that a

reasonable inquiry has been made and that the information known or readily obtainable

by Defendants is insufficient to enable the party to admit or deny.

4. Any matter admitted pursuant to this rule is conclusively established unless the

Court on motion permits withdrawal or amendment of the admission. Any admission

made by Defendants is for the purpose of the pending action only and is not an

admission by Defendants for any other purpose nor may it be used against Defendants

in any other proceeding. See Minn. R. Civ. P. 36.02.

5. This second set of Requests for Admissions concerns Plaintiffs' Exhibits 1-5

which are attached hereto and the Articles of Incorporation filings at the Minnesota

Secretary of State's Office.

6. To avoid duplicate request for admission numbers and the confusion inherent

therein, the numbering of the attached requests for admissions are continued from the

number forty-four (44), which was the ending number in Plaintiffs' First Set of Requests

for Admissions. Therefore, the first number in this Second Request for Admissions is the

number forty-five (45).
